About This Quiz

No matter what type of high school you attended - public, private, Catholic or military - there were always cliques or social classes which the students fell into. From the first day that you walked down those halls, there were people who you immediately gravitated to and not too long after that, you would be linked to them for the rest of your high school life.

For those of us who didn't go to high school, we should still know what those groupings are because they are portrayed in many of the movies and television shows that we watch regularly. If you were at the top, you were either an athlete or one of the popular girls. There were also the bookworms, the stoners, the scene kids, the foreign exchange students, the art/ drama kids.

Who were you when you were in high school? Were you considered a nobody in the eyes of your peers? Or were you at the top of the social ladder? Were you an overachiever? Or was your main goal to make everyone laugh and distract the class? If you think we can guess correctly, then you should take this quiz!
